Benghazi: A Dereliction of Duty

Within two hours of the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi,
Libya on September 11, 2012, that resulted in the death of Ambassador
Chris Stevens and three other Americans, an email was sent to the White
House and State Department.

That first email was sent at 4:05 PM-ET (10:05 PM in Benghazi) and
specifically mentioned that the Libyan group called Ansar al-Sharia, an
al-Qaeda affiliated group, had claimed responsibility for the attacks. Fox News confirms
that the addresses on the email included "a variety of national
security platforms, whose addresses have been redacted, including the
White House Situation Room, the Pentagon, the FBI and the Director of
National Intelligence."

Two more emails were sent within the next two hours.

Internal government email sent Sept. 11 about ongoing attack on U.S. Consulate in Benghazi as published by Fox News

Yet, no action was taken to mobilize special operations forces or the
significant military resources available in the region. The next
morning, the President referred to the attack and other events against
U.S. installations by radical Islamists as "bumps in the road."

In the six weeks since the assassinations in Benghazi, more questions than answers have emerged.

Why did the President and his administration deny any link to
Islamist terror groups for weeks, promoting instead a false "spontaneous
event" explanation?

Why did the Obama administration reject numerous requests for
additional security by Ambassador Stevens and others for months before
the attacks?

Why was the Embassy request for an extension of the 16 member Special
Operations Security Team to remain in Libya to protect the Ambassador
denied just a month before the attack?

And many, many more.

But to that list we must now add: Was there a dereliction of
duty? Was there a willful neglect of duty, an abandonment of Ambassador
Stevens and his staff? If so, why?

Here's a detailed timeline published by Reuters of the email exchanges on that fateful night of September 11:

The first email, timed at 4:05 p.m. Washington time - or 10:05
p.m. Benghazi time, 20-30 minutes after the attack on the U.S.
diplomatic mission allegedly began - carried the subject line "U.S.
Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack" and the notation "SBU",
meaning "Sensitive But Unclassified."

The text said the State Department's regional security office had
reported that the diplomatic mission in Benghazi was "under attack.
Embassy in Tripoli reports approximately 20 armed people fired shots;
explosions have been heard as well."

The message continued: "Ambassador Stevens, who is currently in
Benghazi, and four ... personnel are in the compound safe haven. The
17th of February militia is providing security support."

A second email, headed "Update 1: U.S. Diplomatic Mission in
Benghazi" and timed 4:54 p.m. Washington time, said that the Embassy in
Tripoli had reported that "the firing at the U.S. Diplomatic Mission in
Benghazi had stopped and the compound had been cleared." It said a
"response team" was at the site attempting to locate missing personnel.

A third email, also marked SBU and sent at 6:07 p.m. Washington
time, carried the subject line: "Update 2: Ansar al-Sharia Claims
Responsibility for Benghazi Attack."

The message reported: "Embassy Tripoli reports the group claimed
responsibility on Facebook and Twitter and has called for an attack on
Embassy Tripoli."

While some information identifying recipients of this message was
redacted from copies of the messages obtained by Reuters, a government
source said that one of the addresses to which the message was sent was
the White House Situation Room, the president's secure command post.

Other addressees included intelligence and military units as well as one used by the FBI command center, the source said.

It was not known what other messages were received by agencies in
Washington from Libya that day about who might have been behind the
attacks.

Intelligence experts caution that initial reports from the scene of any attack or disaster are often inaccurate.

By the morning of September 12, the day after the Benghazi
attack, Reuters reported that there were indications that members of
both Ansar al-Sharia, a militia based in the Benghazi area, and al Qaeda
in the Islamic Maghreb, the North African affiliate of al Qaeda's
faltering central command, may have been involved in organizing the
attacks.

According To The Economic Estimating
Conference, Florida's Jobs Picture Will Remain Bleak Through 2016.
"Florida's unemployment rate probably won't change much between now and
the end of the year, and the jobs picture is set to remain bleak through
2016, a team of state economists said Monday." (Toluse Olorunnipa,

Under Obama, Median Household Income In Florida Has Declined From

•Florida's Median Household Income Dropped 2.9 Percent Last Year, A
Sharp Reminder Of The State's "Deflated Economy." "The income of the
typical Florida family dropped 2.9 percent last year, one of the
sharpest reminders that the Sunshine State's deflated economy remains
mired in unemployment and lower-wage jobs. The decline means we will be
financially challenged if we hope to spend our way out of this state's
problems." (Robert Trigaux, "Florida's Household Income Slips, Signaling
Tougher Recovery Ahead," Tampa Bay Times, 9/21/12)

•The "Bulk" Of
New Jobs In Florida In 2011 "Paid On Average About 25 Percent Less Than
The Jobs That Disappeared." "The drop in Florida unemployment masks a
troubling trend: The new jobs continue to pay far less than the ones
that have been lost. The state added 114,000 jobs last year. But the
bulk of them paid on average about 25 percent less than the jobs that
disappeared, according to a Tampa Bay Times analysis of jobs and
industry wage data." (Jeff Harrington, "Florida Still Losing Ground In
Wages Despite Uptick In Jobs," Tampa Bay Times , 2/6/12)

The Libya fiasco grows deeper and more deceitful by the
day.And now e-mails have surfaced proving
this While House knew that the assault in Benghazi was indeed a terrorist
attack, and they knew it within two hours of the outbreak of violence.

The Obama team is now working overtime to cover their butts
with yet another lie...with yet another cover-up.

Leaked information shows that while the attack was actually
in progress, with this being a two-pronged attack on two buildings lasting over
six hours, an islamic militant group sent e-mails to over 400 people in our
government claiming credit for the attack.

Cutting to the chase...this administration knew immediately that this was NOT
a protest over a YouTube video (as Barack HUSSEIN Obama and his cohorts kept
bloviating for over two weeks), and yet they willingly and knowingly sat back
and did NOTHING as four Americans were brutally and barbarically slaughtered!

I call that accessory to murder!

The
e-mails, leaked from a government source to FOX News who broke the
story on Tuesday night, clearly show the Libyan group ‘Ansar al-Sharia’
(with direct ties to al-Qaeda) claiming responsibility
for the attacks while they were still going on.While they were still going on...and to make matters worse, the e-mails also
show how our people described the attack as it was happening in real
time, and sent that information to Washington, including to the White House
Situation Room...meaning to Obama.

And Washington and Obama did NOTHING to help the Ambassador
and the others knowing they were under attack.Oh wait, they did do something...they LIED!Obama and his administration deliberately
lied to ‘We the People’ in an effort to get us to believe that the attack was a
random act triggered by a video critical of islam to cover their asses for
doing NOTHING!

Gee I wonder...what if this had been Americans attacking
muslims would the Obama administration have acted...NO need to wonder as I know
the answer to that one...as do you.

‘Bumps in the road’ Obama said about the Middle East...just ’bumps
in the road’ when he called the murders of four Americans ‘NOT OPTIMAL’...well
guess what, the ‘NOT OPTIMAL’ bumps in the road’ to Obama’s hoped for re-election
just got a hell of a lot harder and rightly so.

Here’s ‘NOT OPTIMAL’ for Obama and his partner in this
crime, Hillary Clinton...here’s something the American people MUST know...the two Navy
SEALS trying to save Ambassador Stevens and Information Officer Sean Smith were
found dead caked in their own blood! They were caked in their own blood when all could
have been saved by the US aircraft carrier stationed 480 miles off the coast that
could have dispatched troops and aircraft to defend our consulate in plenty of
time.In plenty of time yet told to
stand down with the excuse that they needed permission to fly over Libyan
airspace and that couldn’t be had in time to save anyone.

But just in case Obama’s forgotten Commander-in-Chief Lesson
101 let me go over it here for him... when our people are in trouble permission
to fly over, or permission for anything is NOT needed...EVER!And when a US Consulate is attacked anywhere
in the world this is paramount to America itself being attacked, and that, oh
clueless one, is an outright ACT OF WAR!

But hey, with the election coming up Benghazi became just
another ‘bump in the road’ as Barack HUSSEIN Obama flew off to Vegas the very next
day to fund raise, ignoring the deaths of our Ambassador and the others while
his people concocted the cover story about a YouTube video.

And then when it came time to investigate the attack Obama
sent the FBI instead of military investigators, and stationed a destroyer
rather than an amphibious aircraft carrier full of Marines off the coast of
Libya.

It’s obvious to anyone with even one working brain cell that
the Obama administration was not serious about security before the attack
(remember Ambassador’s Stevens’ unanswered plea for help BEFORE the attack), was not
serious about being straight with the American people after the attack, and even with
these e-mails proving that all knew, Obama is still not serious about telling
the truth about the attack.

As former Ambassador John Bolton said about the e-mails, “these
emails say to me that if anybody at the White House thought they could cover
this story up by referring to the mohammad video with this documentary evidence
in real time, then it wasn’t just a cover up. It was an incredibly stupid cover
up.”

A stupid cover-up to be sure. This newly surfaced evidence incriminates
Obama, Hillary, Susan Rice and all the others who deliberately and with malice
tried to wash away the blood on their hands by lying and changing their story
over and over again to cover-up gross negligence and incompetence.

And the e-mails say it all.The e-mails sent at 4:05 p.m. ET with the subject line: "U.S.
Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack (SBU)" tell the true story.

"The Regional Security Officer reports the diplomatic
mission is under attack," the e-mail reads.

"Embassy Tripoli reports approximately 20 armed people
fired shots; explosions have been heard as well. Ambassador Stevens, who is currently in
Benghazi and four COM personnel are in the compound safe haven. The 17th of February militia is providing
security support.

"The operations Center will provide updates as
available."

At this time Ambassador Stevens and the others
were still alive.

A second email, headed "Update 1: U.S. Diplomatic
Mission in Benghazi" and timed 4:54 p.m. Washington time, said that the
Embassy in Tripoli had reported that "the firing at the U.S. Diplomatic
Mission in Benghazi had stopped and the compound had been cleared." It
said a "response team" was at the site attempting to locate missing
personnel.

A third email, also marked SBU and sent at 6:07 p.m.
Washington time, carried the subject line: "Update 2: Ansar al-Sharia
Claims Responsibility for Benghazi Attack."

The message reported: "Embassy Tripoli reports the group claimed responsibility on Facebook and Twitter and has called for an
attack on Embassy Tripoli."

And that was it as we all know the outcome.

And now we have Hillary saying these e-mails, now being
posted all over the internet by people like us who are trying to get the truth
out, were NOT in and of themselves proof of terrorist involvement, saying claims
of responsibility on Facebook and Twitter were not "evidence."

"Posting something on Facebook is not in and of itself
evidence," Clinton continued. "And
I think it just underscores how fluid the reporting was at the time and
continued for some time to be."

BULLSH*T!!! Lying about MURDER at our consulate does NOT underscore fluid reporting but is treason against 'We the People' as far a I'm concerned.

Bottom line...this administration did NOTHING to save
Ambassador Stevens and the others even when they knew they were in trouble and
while there was still time to save them. And they knew this was a terrorist attack
because they were told it was by the people doing it!

And while this is my opinion and mine alone, the murders of
our people MUST be avenged.Time for
useless diplomacy is over...the times of lies and cover-ups is over. I say immediately shock and awe the whole
freakin' bunch of them...inflict as much collateral damage as possible and make
them BEG, and I mean BEG, for us to stop! Enough of this muslim bullsh*t...enough!

And that includes the one in the White House and ALL his
cohorts for the blood on their hands has now been proven to stain them all the way
down to their cores...all the way down to their treasonous cores.
